Over-55s mid-terrace bungalow, two bedrooms, lounge/diner
This compact two-bedroom mid-terrace bungalow in Bridge Court is built for over-55s looking to downsize close to Romsey town centre. The property offers a practical lounge/diner, fitted kitchen and modern shower room, plus double glazing and electric storage heating. Communal facilities include a residents’ lounge, laundry room, guest room availability and communal parking.
Important lease and cost details affect this sale: the flat is leasehold with 58 years remaining, a service charge of about £2,352pa and ground rent of £324pa. Lenders commonly refuse mortgages with short leases, so buyers should confirm financing options or prepare for a cash purchase. The small private rear garden is maintained by the owner but is not part of the title.
The bungalow is chain-free and within easy walking distance of Romsey amenities and transport links, making it suitable for buyers wanting low-maintenance living with local shops, cafes and rail services nearby. Note the property is small (approximately 433 sq ft) and uses electric heating only, which may increase running costs compared with gas-heated homes.
Buyers should also be aware of elevated local crime levels and check any personal security concerns. A pre-purchase survey and independent checks on lease documentation are recommended to verify service charge arrangements and confirm suitability for mortgage lending.
